Pricey no doubt but there are some great wines available.  95/97/98 One Acre are some of my favorites - it really doesn't get much better than the 95 especially.

That was a big oops on them.

I saw this email just as it came in. I have no access to a fax machine today and the next several. But this gave me a chance to sit back and say -- pass.

I'd love to buy these wines, but I've got other unexpected things to cough up money for -- my car was just declared a total loss from n accident I had with it September 1st.

Wouldn't know. I didn't buy any wines one round and Littorai threw me off of their list.

Some of their wines are great and age well, but I think these are a bit overpriced, especially the Chardonnays.
 I can't see myself paying $ 160.00 for a bottle of  Littorai Chardonnay.

That's odd...I've not bought any for two vintages but I still got this offer.  Their mailers always hit at the wrong time..and their prices are just a tad too steep for me.

Same here...purchased the 2002s and 2003s but skipped 2004.  But at $140 - $250 per bottle of pinot noir, it's an easy pass.

A bit on the high side but I'd pick up a magnum or two if I had the cash since the provenance is excellent and I love to try some of the older wines.

If you are into Littorai, you should also check out the podcast on GrapeRadio recently. Very informative, particularly on those different vineyards:
